Pauline Jakobsberg: "Birthrights Left Behind"

This exhibit includes a selection of Jakobsberg's work consisting of 20 original hand-pulled prints using various printmaking techniques ranging from engraving, etching, silkscreen and collagraph.

Inspired by memory drawings, journal sketches, artifacts and family tales told by the Holocaust survivors of her husband's family, Jakobsberg has created art that leaves sweet, yet haunting memories, making her visions a reality. By incorporating images from photographs and other documents into her etched prints, she develops a story, reminding us of our inability to grasp our past completely.
